On time salary.

Dislikes

Becoming less employee-oriented and lacks respect for its workforce. There's a noticeable decrease in open communication, leading to confusion and dissatisfaction. Employees feel undervalued due to the absence of recognition for their hard work, and there's a worrying trend of increased work expectations without consideration for work-life balance. Despite providing feedback, little action has been taken to address these issues. I believe it's crucial to encourage open dialogue, recognize employee achievements, and promote a healthier work environment

... Saturday off. Very rigid criteria for promotion. Very low salary increment. It will forfeit your variable pay if you are not going to work for next year. Every piece of information is confidential here (even if it is available in public domain) and requires the Group Chairman’s approval for sharing. So, you may struggle to know the business itself.
